Best Foot

By -
The staying says put your best foot forward.  If you’ve done that, rest in that. No need to ruminate after you’ve done your best. Because that’s the best possible outcome. Giving your best is the best possible outcome. Rest in that and move forward.  What ifs don’t net any benefit. A good debrief is valuable sure, but playing the what if game doesn’t.  Put your best foot forward. Then don’t look back, put your next best foot forward.

Happiness

By -
Happiness is good. In fact, it's great. But it can't be our chief pursuit. It will inevitably lead to disappointment. Purpose is a better pursuit. Happiness is often a byproduct of purpose. But happiness on its own is fleeting and difficult to hold onto.

Safety

By -
Lies aren’t safe. Being told what we want to hear isn’t safe.  But truth and love is safe. Telling someone the truth and in love is true safety. Being told the truth and love is safe.

Blessed

If I woke up this morning, I’m blessed. The rest is just opportunity. Bad times? Opportunity. Endings? Opportunity. Good times? Still opportunity.

Get Uncomfortable

By -
Comfort isn’t entirely a good thing. Momentary comfort is good and maybe even necessary. Sleeping comfortable every night is a blessing and a luxury. But living in a state of comfort? That’s an invitation to decline.  Do things that push you out and past that comfort zone. Therein lies the albeit hard but better path to bettering yourself and making a greater impact.

Step Forward

Sometimes we slip. But don’t allow yourself to slip twice. Step forward. Stepping forward is always the right response when things slip.

Added Pain

By -
We add so much pain to ourselves when we ruminate, when we hang onto the past and when we fight what we can't change. It's so hard to do. It's easy to say stop. But when you can stop these things, you can remove added pain from life. Life comes with enough built-in pain. We don't need to heap any more on.
